Commit 11c9c7edae06 ("mm/page_poison.c: replace bool variable with static key")
changed page_poisoning_enabled() to a static key check. However, the function
is not inlined, so each check still involves a function call with overhead not
eliminated when page poisoning is disabled.
Analogically to how debug_pagealloc is handled, this patch converts
page_poisoning_enabled() back to boolean check, and introduces
page_poisoning_enabled_static() for fast paths. Both functions are inlined.
The function kernel_poison_pages() is also called unconditionally and does
the static key check inside. Remove it from there and put it to callers. Also
split it to two functions kernel_poison_pages() and kernel_unpoison_pages()
instead of the confusing bool parameter.
Also optimize the check that enables page poisoning instead of debug_pagealloc
for architectures without proper debug_pagealloc support. Move the check to
init_mem_debugging_and_hardening() to enable a single static key instead of
having two static branches in page_poisoning_enabled_static().

This would look much better by having kernel_poison_pages() simply be
implemented in a header, where the static check is performed.
Take a look at how it's handled in mm/shuffle.h
Ok. Fixup below.
